Help Settle Our Debate!

Thomas and I have differing opinions on how we should spell our coming little one’s middle name. One of us wants a to spell Wesley’s middle name ReeSe while the other wants to spell it ReeCe, and I won’t say which one of us wants what, for it might sway your opinion. Neither of us have known a Reese/Reece personally; all we know is the actress, Reese Witherspoon, so we do not have anyone to base our spelling decision off of. Anyway, you should see a poll at the top right hand side of our blog page, and I would love for you to make a vote to help us decide (I hope it works; I’ve never created one before!). If you’ve got any justifications or other such comments, like you know/knew someone with this name and he/she spells it a certain way, feel free to leave them in this post.

Summer I think you are trying to skew the vote. Posting this on mothers day and reminding us “Summer’s Mother’s name–Teresa”
I think you should have capitalized the “S” in Teresa, that would have sealed the deal.
Then again I would have voted for “ReeSe” anyway, I like it better.
On a side note Amanda is now in Bethel, I am all alone :-(

Summer, I asked around work and it is unanomous for Reese with a “S”. Some of the reasons included that you are naming the baby after your mother who spells it with a S, also everyone sees it as a more manly spelling. In addition, Reece with a “C” is like the candy. =)

Courtney, that is Thomas’s argument. When we’ve looked on-line at origins and such, it indicates that the S is unisex but the C is male. He claims that it must be the C since Wesley is, of course, a boy. And if he is not a boy, we’ve got a whole lot of other problems on our hands rather than choosing between an S or a C, for we are totally not prepared for a girl ;o)
